Re: Big camp, small landing party.
So yeah - this is an issue for us - a large group that all comes in together, unplaced, and finds a ton of roped-off but otherwise largely unoccupied spaces. I feel like me and you are in the same boat though, Most of us will be arriving sunday morning, so if anything I'll be holding down area for ...

Re: Those in need of a VP who entered VP only OMG sale
@eric. I can directly address the question posed in your post. After failing the individual sale, I began hunting craigslist and facebook for a ticket. I registered for STEP, well STEP came and went with no love. I registered for OMG, but by the time the sale was 2 days away a friend of mine let me ...

Re: Big camp, small landing party.
All solid advice. People saying NO LAND GRABBING PRE EVENT; I know, this was the assumption I was planning to work under. People are also telling me, take an outer street, take up the space you'll need, and you'll be fine. So here's what I've got worked up.. Pre-event, set up small camp, don't assum...

You said Land grabbing can happen after the gates, too... I'm confused. I though grabbing land before the gates openned was not okay?

Re: Big camp, small landing party.
Thanks for all of your input guys! Our camp has a OneNote doc with a list of all our participants and how much space each person claims to need. We even have a 30x30 dome coming! After considering all the space everyone has stated they need, I'm staring down the undertaking of claiming about 5000 sq...

Some experience here in the matter!

Re: Camp Hotel Rug
The rug was epic. I saw that same rug again up at OFC this last year. Playa stains still rampant. Yes it brings people together, and I'm still nursing a 6th degree rug burn from 2013. We are really cool people and stuff. we formed up here on this fancy eplaya with a small "base" group of people who ...

Well it's getting to be about that time of year again. WE ARE CAMP HOTEL RUG. We will be doing things, as well as stuff. In 2014 we didn't have a large ePlaya presence, but I do hope to change that for 2015. We are an eclectic group of individuals who formed this fantastic thing we call a family via...

Cube Shade Shelter
So for my shelter this year I was thinking of going with a design I saw my first year created by some of my neighbors. Their shelter was an 8x8x8 cube, made of 2 inch pvc, secured with rebar. For shade/wind protection, the walls were made by wrapping the cube over and over with string, then placing ...

I bought a ticket to and from and ended up not using the return ticket. (not because I didn't want to, service was great, just found a ride) I left at 12:30 from the reno airport and we got on playa at 4:30 pm sunday. Would use again. I think next year they'll have the luggage situation better taken...

Where do you draw the line?
Where do you draw the line between "I should pick this up because ground score" and "I should pick this up so I can turn it into lost and found"?
note: I'm just interested to hear what the community has to say on this topic. I personally draw the line at anything more valuable than "shiny moop"

Re: law enforcement 2013
no one just gives away well over $10,000 of anything as “thanks”; any amount of pot that a girl could carry would not be worth 10,000. If she were in fact a pot farmer, a gallon bag of pot would be comparable to a few handles of alcohol. you can probably fit about 800 dollars of pot in a gallon bag...
